I was a happy boy living on the dole |
|
When you came and ruined it all on me |
|
I'd sit for hours all day in my good friend's home |
|
Smoking cigarettes and drinking tea |
|
We were so happy there, talk our lives away |
|
Talking 'bout our hopes and all our dreams |
|
Till you came round one day with your great big plan |
|
And you tried to ruin me with your schemes |
|
And your Mammy and your |
|
Daddy well they call you |
|
Mary But they shoulda called you |
|
Deathwatch |
|
Shoulda called you |
|
Deathwatch |
|
Cause you nearly were the death of me |
|
Lads told me you were no good |
|
I turned them away |
|
Said that you just wanted things from me |
|
Then you made me get a job and |
|
I understood |
|
I was in too deep |
|
I'd not be free |
|
And then I gave up drink cos you asked me too |
|
I was shaving each day before long |
|
Then you said we had to save for a mortgage soon |
|
That was when the light began to dawn |
|
Didn't even say goodbye just walked away |
|
From the burderns you had put on me |
|
Don't know why |
|
I even tried to be something |
|
I'm not All |
|
I know's I wanted to be free |
|
Now I'm a happy boy living on the dole |
|
Smoking cigarettes and drinking tea |
|
I'll find some other girl to have me as |
|
I am You can take your twisted love to sea |
